Made In Pescadero — Local services in Half Moon Bay

After glamping at nearby Costanoa and a lunch at Duarte next door, we stumbled into this gem by accident. We had been shopping for a dining room table in Oakland where we live and were surprised at the high cost and lack of quality from the high end retailers. When we entered the Made in Pescadero store, we could see this was someplace special that made beautiful wood products and were totally drawn to them. When we inquired about pricing, we were blown away at how reasonable it was for custom-made furniture. Once we returned home to Oakland, I called them and began the easy process of designing and having them build our dining table. It was completed on time, delivered perfectly and we couldn’t be happier. These carpenters are special, what they’re producing is really high quality at a very reasonable price without all the filler garbage you’ll find in many of the retailer’s furniture. We have a beautiful walnut trestle dining table now and we’re grateful to Made in Pescadero for such high quality at such a reasonable price with excellent communication...

Made in Pescadero is a hidden GEM! We've furnished two houses with custom made furniture from the store. Ken and Marcus are real craftsmen. You can buy a factory made piece from Flegel's for 2X the price and you'll get nice pieces that you can find in plenty of other homes. Or you can build one-of-kind pieces of art inspired by anything you've seen or can imagine. Ken made us a beautiful table milled from reclaimed timbers from a 100 year old Redwood bridge piling that washed out in the flood of '98 . Marcus even made us a "magic" pop-up coffee table from some beautiful figured cherry (though it was so hard to balance he swore he'd never build another). If you want a nice but me-too piece of furniture - go to Flegels and get a Stickley reproduction . If you want a one-of-a-kind heirloom quality piece of furniture make the trek...

Though pricey, this wonderful store has the best handmade wooden goods from coast to coast. They have items from all price ranges for all parts of the home and office. I was able to get my wife a beautiful cherry and mixed wood jewelry box for a very reasonable price given the quality of the construction, detail, and materials. She just absolutely loves it. Whenever I'm in the Pescadero area, and they're open, I usually stop in just to see what's new and whose work they are carrying.

They do in-house pieces to at your request, but that is definitely very pricey. Either way, do yourself a favor and stop it. Enjoy handmade items of high quality--...
